Agnes Obel: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

[@aJJMakesSense]

Agnes obel music makes me feel like I'm in the back of an ambulance seeing the last moments of my life in iridescent flashes, and by that I mean I love her music.

[@islavidal]

wohhh this is so spot on

[@bbup1809]

I love your comment ❤️

[@CaseyNevell-]

I agree I would be quite happy to die to this she's amazingly talented and beautiful x

[@brunoy7005]

Poetic

[@BrendanFrancisMusic]

Incredible

[@erica2656]

Agnes Obel's music is so beautiful it actually hurts

[@bernios3446]

Ha, a minute before I came here to this video I wrote exactly that about my favorite song of her's ("Familiar").

[@xamax12345]

Saw her play in a small church in my small canadian uni town...it was mindblowing and so is this small show

[@Baphometrose]

That must of been quite the experience. Very envious right now...:)

[@DazzaDirect]

[@arfarfarfarf8313]

I LOVE Agnes, but all these women are very talented.

[@eveofearth]

Why does Agnes look like a Roman sculpture?? Her face is so defined and flawless....

[@omega1231]

Eve McEntire ethnic Danes tend to have very defined facial features, tall cheek bones, sharp jaw line etc.

For breaking through ice

[@kaliritchie9865]

can she be? Made of stone, of stone

[@juanmunst8507]

hes a reborn goddess of music

[@TheMonolake]

@@joerensh8463 thanks

[@Ring0fSaturn]

While I like many different kinds of music (from classical to rock to ambient and more), Agnes Obel's music is transformative and hypnotic. It's also refreshing that she is humble in her performances, letting the music speak without a lot of flash. Thank you, Agnes, for bringing beauty to the world.

[@alejandrotorres2223]

With no reverb on voice channel it’s easier to realize what an amazing singer she is. My favorite artist ever.

[@b1aflatoxin]

Of course Agnes Obel did a tiny desk performance. Some of the coolest songwriter/musicians on Earth have scratched their names into that desk.

[@Insane8221]

Agnes Obel and her crew create entire worlds of wonder and beauty that drives me to tears. Love your work, Agnes!

[@Digues]

OMG THIS WOMAN IS SUCH A GREAT ARTIST HOLY SHIT

[@SinfulDesignUK]

Watch Dorian on the Berlin Live Sessions.

[@thebeardedladies6036]

riiiiiiiiight!!!?

[@bruceviv2003]

Her music is just magic . Brings me to a place of joy and peace.

[@Gabriela-tb5uv]

So underrated, she deserves more, is beautiful.

[@TRIX2100a]

i dunno why i am appreciating Agnes and the band so much - it touches me where no-one's looking at.

[@GabbyCamilleri]

her voice is breathtakingly beautiful

[@PistonAvatarGuy]

They all have wonderful voices. 11:14 is magical.

[@joansmith69]

Woah! Agnes Obel at NPR! YES!

[@glorfyndel8533]

I have been waiting for so long... It's like a dream becoming true !! ==> Agnes Obel on NPR !!!!!

[@cristinaarias9026]

Ditto, I was hoping for the day they'd finally bring Agnes in

[@noahjamesgose9825]

I've discovered so many amazing musicians from this channel. Thank you so much, NPR Music for helping to shape my musical tastes.

[@DazzaDirect]

lets be real this is the BEST live music chanel on youtube #NPR #WEHeARTYOU ;-]

[@simmer484]

Music to work to. Music to study to. Music to walk to. Music chillout to. Music to drive to. Music to fly to. Music to day dream to.

[@tuekg]

Always such nice comments on NPR's channel

[@DazzaDirect]

music is trancendent, a universal lubricant and lets be real this is the BEST live music chanel on youtube #NPR #WEHeARTYOU ;-]

[@Jocstar_]

Honestly glad to see Agnes getting such love in the comments , really thought I was the only one inlove with her music

[@Az-yp8fs]

The communication between them all on Stone is amazing.

[@dougdame6706]

Citizens of Glass is probably my favorite musical discovery of the past 6 months. Fun to see them do it live. Great stuff.

[@polki802]

Just signed up for tickets to see Agnes next September in Cambridge UK. Long time to wait but I've been waiting so much longer for a chance to share a space and an evening with this ethereally beautiful woman, So a year will pass quickly, time will stand still and I will be left with a lifetime of memories. Well worth it!

[@stephanieb6578]

Where is she from? Incredible talent in her and her musicians!

[@ranggasuryagading3584]

happy to finally see Phoebe made it in the music industry as a backing vocalist

[@marshabush232]

I wish they'd allow her to show some of her classic moves on guitar though. She's created some amazing chords ;D

[@maxim_b774]

Smelly cat, smelly cat..

[@TanukiSC]

Perfection. No matter the venue. So perfect.

[@menadavid9930]

Oh my goodness! Goosebumps all over! This is too beautiful.

[@karolinemotadesousa689]

Agnes, escuto suas músicas todos os dias aqui no Brasil. Obrigada por existir.

[@quiikk]

I didn't realize I live along side actual Angels. They sound so beautiful together. This sound gives me hope in humanity. 💟

[@nikitap930]

What an amazing band! Their three-voice harmony gave me goose bumps

[@nathalieherault1899]

Merveilleux groupe féminin, voix aériennes , douceur et élégance enchantent

[@phinehastaylor6964]

a dropped a like based purely on sonic innovation. the whistling twirling sound from the cello player at the end of the first song. the perfect mimicry of the sound of rattling bones. The raw vocal talent here in addition to that imaginative sound creation really impressed me

[@DazzaDirect]

yeah i put down a like --> that cello

[@naitch5365]

Her music can fill up the whole room. Love her. One of the more underrated artists I've seen a while.

[@WaspandUnicorn]

I love love love them!! It's happening again has been on loop for about a month in my head. So hauntingly beautiful. Thanks NPR

[@AnneloesF]

Stunningly beautiful. Thank you!

[@talldarkmystere]

Thank you for having Agnes come and play, NPR! She's one of my favorite artists. I've got all her albums, and just adore her music.

[@brunoy7005]

Lying in my boat looking at the sky, the water rocks me and my mind fades. These girls are mermaids bewitching sailors with their songs.

[@beayou109]

I had the great pleasure to see Agnes Obel last night at the start of her new Tour in Dortmund, Germany. Had a great night

[@samcarter6110]

i love the deep melodies. this is powerful. I had this on autoplay and had to start it over. I was not prepared haha. stellar

[@veremox]

I'd love to see Portishead playing on tiny desk. got chills just picturing that nyc show with the live orchestra.

[@PeepsILoveEllie]

wow, speechless.. I'm blown by how well they work together in order to create such wonderful sounds.

[@priresca8942]

Wonderful women, marvelous music

"Stone" gives me deep chills each and every time.

[@taiweannoona1204]

Agnes music is ethereal and cosmic at once. Lonely and gothic, glistening and vibrant.☺️

I can't be the only one who noticed Agnes has a vampiric lover right? Maybe that's what makes her so amazing. ;)

[@stephanieb6578]

Thank you! I am as well! Recommend by other Witches! I think I maybe able to watch on someone else’s iTunes? Where is she from? All so talented, flawless!

[@maxhunt2644]

@@stephanieb6578 This video, even though an NPR production, is the one that's on iTunes. She may have more on iTunes but there's a lot here on KZbin. She's Scandinavian, Norway maybe? I think she lives in Germany...if not, she's there a lot. It's been a while since I wrote that comment and had read all about her. She's apparently very popular in Europe. All I can say is, her music and her voice/singing style is unique to me and simply EPIC!

Fascinating, astounding, shifted me soul

[@mara_altami]

Breathtaking...

[@KevinMichaelCallihan]

It is getting better, and I like it. Listening to more of her and others music together as people like her and I mean this among all but the one way I noticed that good musicians from there ways is agreed upon that they all have an understanding from listening to what they wrote or rearranged and composed with variations on themes is where I see the difference is you don't rank these minds that create different sounds while using different people as opposed to having the same people travel with you everywhere you go and it sounds like a negative but it is not, from what I read. Everything has good and bad while these ladies and all musicians have tremendous heart and soul with a blend of memory that is not my loss but definitely again when you love the voice. I learned to appreciate that feeling more many years in opera vignettes in an octagonal stone round domed, pillared place for the performing arts. It was on The Ridges in Athens, Ohio and created and supported the music department of Ohio University. It had to be among my top five actual professional people in ballet and opera and I have yet to see and hear ballet that is considered internationally a company that enters the ways to better the patrons of these forms of performing arts. I sense the prideful nature that is a given and you can tell but not for me as I have seen the mixed continents and any countries dancers who focus on this and it is like a name in from the Russian Gallet Ballet while this is and has been first in mind but not ranking it. I don't feel that is at all what I wish to convey nor do you. I'm writing for the sake of the widow's son and that means for humanity no different than feminism evidenced by two favorite entertainer activists have he same answer at end of their show yet they do have a conviction for something better yet it circulates the blood more. I agree and not specifics but to the feeling that it gives me because it is based on history and being one who listens to many as I kind musicians, it is always a bad hair day as described by all as the chemistry between good players who know it and can repeat and readers of music that do it on the spot while throwing their own unless it is not that way. Improvisation, hoping I can read this in years to come. Why not, it is a good cheers different than here is to "world peace", and certainly. It is a great way to see better day and way in handling foreign relations which was of interest to me last time I was in an enrolled academic course. It is a great experience. except online which for me, it is just as good a reason to get it here and compliment those who brought and I do by writing and letting it be known or just reminding so I can write better which should corollate well with thinking better. I don't know but what I feel.

Let me be very Clear - Agens Obel & TinyDesk are F*****G great. If you are interested in Agnes they have many fantastic concerts to enjoy, and as for TinyDesk, i mean, come on, they are MASTERS. This TinyDesk Agnes Session dose not nearly speak to how good Agnes can be. It might be the first time i saw an artist on tinydesk and then fonud better after searching. Tiny DeskILoveYouForever
